Hi, I am back with another Outlook question. If am composing a message, if I click on the to, cc or bcc, I will get this error saying the contact is not found or something like that. Simpley means, it does not exist. So for some reason, I guess the folder is not there anymore. I went to the outlook contact folder and make sure the outlook default set as the outlook address book is tick. but there's a drop down box which consist of outlook address book , contact and my contact. The one I use is my contact and the contact is the one that's giving me that error. I hope I am making sense here. I went to tools, account, view and edit existing directory/address book and there's only 1. Its just a pain if you ask me to clikc that error message and pull down the address book listing everytime I compose a messsage I am using MSO 2k3 by the way. thanks -------------------------------------------------- Computer users are divided into three types: novice, intermediate and expert.
